Steve Gogatz, the owner of Light Up My Holiday and Innovative Light Designs, has been passionate about outdoor lighting since he was 12 years old, after experiencing Disneyland's "It's a Small World" ride. His fascination with lighting has led him to brighten over 5,000 customers' homes and businesses with dazzling holiday light displays and permanent outdoor landscape lighting.

Many of his early clients were in Placentia, where he went to Kramer and Valencia. Later, during his college years, Steve's hobby turned into a business, and people began seeking his elaborate designs to bring joy and excitement to their communities. His holiday lighting installations often won local decorating contests, and it was fulfilling for Steve to see his designs recognized and his customers delighted with his work.
